Chipper, Braves crush D-Backs

Baseball Betting Lines

07/30/2007 - Phoenix, AZ (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Chipper Jones drove in five runs and Tim Hudson scattered three hits over seven shutout innings as Atlanta trounced Arizona, 14-0, in the finale of a three-game set.

Hudson (11-5) fanned five and walked one, improving to 4-0 lifetime against Arizona.

Jeff Francoeur went 3-for-5 and scored twice for the Braves, who picked up runs in each of the first seven innings to stop a four-game slide and avoid a sweep in Phoenix. Willie Harris was 2-for-3 with four runs scored, while Kelly Johnson and Andruw Jones both drove in a pair of runs. Edgar Renteria, Yunel Escobar and Julio Franco each contributed two hits and a run scored.

D-Backs starter Livan Hernandez (6-7) was tagged for eight runs and eight hits with three walks and no strikeouts over four innings. Eric Byrnes tripled for the D-Backs, who saw their eight-game winning streak ended.

The Braves put up three runs in the first. Harris walked and moved to third on Renteria's double. The elder Jones knocked in one with a sacrifice fly, then the younger Jones smacked a two-run homer to center -- his 20th of the season. It is the 10th consecutive year he has reached the mark.

The onslaught continued in the second as Chipper hit a bases-clearing double to make it 6-0. Ageless wonder Julio Franco added a one-out RBI single in the third for a 7-0 game, and Jones recorded his fifth RBI of the game with a fourth-inning sac fly.

Dustin Nippert took the hill in the fifth, but Atlanta continued to pour it on, scoring twice more on Johnson's double. Chris Woodward made it 11-0 in the sixth on a run-scoring double, then scored their 12th run of the contest when Nippert uncorked a wild pitch with Jeff Francoeur at the plate.

In the seventh against Edgar Gonzalez, Scott Thorman hit a lead-off homer and Escobar added an RBI single for a 14-0 game.

Jose Ascanio pitched a scoreless eighth and Bob Wickman followed with a scoreless ninth to close out the contest.
